The Maori people of New Zealand came from eastern Polynesia in waves of canoes sometime between 1250 and 1300 AD. Over the centuries, they developed a rich and complex society that included a fierce and terrifying warrior culture. Europeans described the Maori warriors as large men, although women could be warriors as well, who had extensive facial tattoos. While they looked fearsome, their intense physical appearance is only the start of what made these warriors so terrifying.

Australian aborigines make their own weapons for hunting.
▶ SUBSCRIBE! http://bit.ly/PlanetDoc Full Documentaries every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday!
Ever since people began to hunt, they've racked their brains to invent ever more efficient weapons to bring down their prey. But some of them came up with solutions before the others…
Deep in the rainforest they cut lengths of flexible bougainvillea to make spears and harpoons for fishing.
They took up the spear against the white men who invaded their country and made them prisoners in their own land.
Back outside the forest, a fire is built and the flexible new shafts are heated for straightening and hardening.
Then they’re stripped of their bark and cut to the best length for each man.
When the tide goes out they hunt the dangerous sting rays. These rays can hide in the sand and give you a painful, stinging surprise… but this hunter is watchful and attentive. After capturing the animal, he holds its tail in his mouth and pulls out the poisonous stinger.
Sometimes, of course, a spear can be a little too short…
That’s why they invented the boomerang. A simple piece of wood formed into a slight curve that makes it more accurate when thrown.
The heavier it is, the more crushing is the blow when it hits its prey.
The most skilled hunters can hit an animal from a distance of more than 175 yards.
And contrary to popular belief, the boomerang doesn’t come back after it's thrown. That story was made up for tourists, my friend.

English/Nat
A New Zealand Maori singer is on a head-hunting expedition to New York City.
Dalvanius Prime is appealing to the American Museum of Natural History to return its collection of 35 preserved and tattooed human heads to their country of origin - New Zealand.Prime is negotiating with the museum, which bought the heads in 1907 from one of his forebears.
The museum, which has not displayed the heads since the 1970s, has not said whether it will agree to return them.
Dalvanius Prime is singing the praises of his ancestors.
As a singer and performer in his native New Zealand he has achieved a certain amount of fame.
He often performs the songs he has written for his fellow Maori tribesmen.
But in the U-S, he has become famous for his fight to free his forefathers - well, their heads anyway.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"It is part of our pagan past, but you know, we are quite sophisticated people. And thanks to you Westerners, and people like this great institution, who have preserved our cultural history, we are very, very thankful. But you know, we are a very sophisticated race. We are a classic race. Our language is classic, our culture is classic, and so is our art. And that is why you people need to keep our heads, because you are totally fascinated with them, but unfortunately, it is time they came home."
SUPERCAPTION: Dalvanius Prime, Ethnomusicologist
This is Prime's eleventh trip to New York City to ask for the release of members of his tribe.
At the turn of the century, the American Museum of Natural History bought 35 of their skulls for a paltry 15-hundred U-S dollars.
Before they were colonised by the English, it was traditional for native Maori tribes to preserve the heads of their slaves - or mokomokai.
They were often kept around the home.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The moko on the face of these preserved Maori heads in this museum, they depict the tribal and ancestral history of our people. In other words, as you Americans call them, the genealogy of our people."
SUPER CAPTION: Dalvanius Prime, Ethnomusicologist
These highly decorated heads were traded to Europeans for what was then a lot of money - often nearly 20 dollars.
The NewZealand government did not want to be reminded of a savage past, Prime says, so they let the tattooed skulls go for a very low price.
The mokomokai are the history books of the ancient Maori tribe.
Intricate designs tell the story of a people who had no written language.
When the 35 heads came to New York they carried a sacred history with them.
But now Prime, whose lifelong dream to return the heads to his native people, feels it is time for them to go back to New Zealand.
According to Maori tribesmen, it is only when the mokomokai make the trip back to New Zealand that they will be able to rest in peace.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"These heads have not had their spiritual journey. Their spiritual journey is incomplete. OK? Their bones lie back in New Zealand, but their heads are over here. And also, because there is a lot of history that belongs to our tribe, and to our people, OK? And so these things have to be preserved. They are our intellectual copyright."
SUPER CAPTION: Dalvanius Prime, Ethnomusicologist
When he visits the Museum, Prime greets his preserved tribesmen as if meeting them in person.
He says he often rubs noses with the heads - a traditional Maori greeting.
He is offering an exchange of cultural artifacts if the Museum will return his ancestors.
Negotiations are still going on.

Hunting

Hunting is the practice of killing or trapping any animal, or pursuing it with the intent of doing so. Hunting wildlife or feral animals is most commonly done by humans for food, recreation, or trade. In present-day use, lawful hunting is distinguished from poaching, which is the illegal killing, trapping or capture of the hunted species. The species that are hunted are referred to as game and are usually mammals and birds.

Hunting can also be a means of pest control. Hunting advocates state that hunting can be a necessary component of modern wildlife management, for example, to help maintain a population of healthy animals within an environment's ecological carrying capacity when natural checks such as predators are absent. However, hunting has also heavily contributed to the endangerment, extirpation and extinction of many animals.

Australian aborigines make their own weapons for hunting.
▶ SUBSCRIBE! http://bit.ly/PlanetDoc Full Documentaries every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday!
Ever since people began to hunt, they've racked their brains to invent ever more efficient weapons to bring down their prey. But some of them came up with solutions before the others…
Deep in the rainforest they cut lengths of flexible bougainvillea to make spears and harpoons for fishing.
They took up the spear against the white men who invaded their country and made them prisoners in their own land.
Back outside the forest, a fire is built and the flexible new shafts are heated for straightening and hardening.
Then they’re stripped of their bark and cut to the best length for each man.
When the tide goes out they hunt the dangerous sting rays. These rays can hide in the sand and give you a painful, stinging surprise… but this hunter is watchful and attentive. After capturing the animal, he holds its tail in his mouth and pulls out the poisonous stinger.
Sometimes, of course, a spear can be a little too short…
That’s why they invented the boomerang. A simple piece of wood formed into a slight curve that makes it more accurate when thrown.
The heavier it is, the more crushing is the blow when it hits its prey.
The most skilled hunters can hit an animal from a distance of more than 175 yards.
And contrary to popular belief, the boomerang doesn’t come back after it's thrown. That story was made up for tourists, my friend.

A New Zealand Maori singer is on a head-hunting expedition to New York City.
Dalvanius Prime is appealing to the American Museum of Natural History to return its collection of 35 preserved and tattooed human heads to their country of origin - New Zealand.Prime is negotiating with the museum, which bought the heads in 1907 from one of his forebears.
The museum, which has not displayed the heads since the 1970s, has not said whether it will agree to return them.
Dalvanius Prime is singing the praises of his ancestors.
As a singer and performer in his native New Zealand he has achieved a certain amount of fame.
He often performs the songs he has written for his fellow Maori tribesmen.
But in the U-S, he has become famous for his fight to free his forefathers - well, their heads anyway.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"It is part of our pagan past, but you know, we are quite sophisticated people. And thanks to you Westerners, and people like this great institution, who have preserved our cultural history, we are very, very thankful. But you know, we are a very sophisticated race. We are a classic race. Our language is classic, our culture is classic, and so is our art. And that is why you people need to keep our heads, because you are totally fascinated with them, but unfortunately, it is time they came home."
SUPERCAPTION: Dalvanius Prime, Ethnomusicologist
This is Prime's eleventh trip to New York City to ask for the release of members of his tribe.
At the turn of the century, the American Museum of Natural History bought 35 of their skulls for a paltry 15-hundred U-S dollars.
Before they were colonised by the English, it was traditional for native Maori tribes to preserve the heads of their slaves - or mokomokai.
They were often kept around the home.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The moko on the face of these preserved Maori heads in this museum, they depict the tribal and ancestral history of our people. In other words, as you Americans call them, the genealogy of our people."
SUPER CAPTION: Dalvanius Prime, Ethnomusicologist
These highly decorated heads were traded to Europeans for what was then a lot of money - often nearly 20 dollars.
The NewZealand government did not want to be reminded of a savage past, Prime says, so they let the tattooed skulls go for a very low price.
The mokomokai are the history books of the ancient Maori tribe.
Intricate designs tell the story of a people who had no written language.
When the 35 heads came to New York they carried a sacred history with them.
But now Prime, whose lifelong dream to return the heads to his native people, feels it is time for them to go back to New Zealand.
According to Maori tribesmen, it is only when the mokomokai make the trip back to New Zealand that they will be able to rest in peace.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"These heads have not had their spiritual journey. Their spiritual journey is incomplete. OK? Their bones lie back in New Zealand, but their heads are over here. And also, because there is a lot of history that belongs to our tribe, and to our people, OK? And so these things have to be preserved. They are our intellectual copyright."
SUPER CAPTION: Dalvanius Prime, Ethnomusicologist
When he visits the Museum, Prime greets his preserved tribesmen as if meeting them in person.
He says he often rubs noses with the heads - a traditional Maori greeting.
He is offering an exchange of cultural artifacts if the Museum will return his ancestors.
Negotiations are still going on.

Top 10 TERRIFYING Facts About MAORI WARRIORS

The Maori people of New Zealand came from eastern Polynesia in waves of canoes sometime between 1250 and 1300 AD. Over the centuries, they developed a rich and complex society that included a fierce and terrifying warrior culture. Europeans described the Maori warriors as large men, although women could be warriors as well, who had extensive facial tattoos. While they looked fearsome, their intense physical appearance is only the start of what made these warriors so terrifying.

Aboriginal Hunting | Culture - Planet Doc Full Documentaries

Australian aborigines make their own weapons for hunting.

Ever since people began to hunt, they've racked their brains to invent ever more efficient weapons to bring down their prey. But some of them came up with solutions before the others…
Deep in the rainforest they cut lengths of flexible bougainvillea to make spears and harpoons for fishing.
They took up the spear against the white men who invaded their country and made them prisoners in their own land.
Back outside the forest, a fire is built and the flexible new shafts are heated for straightening and hardening.
Then they’re stripped of their bark and cut to the best length for each man.
When the tide goes out they hunt the dangerous sting rays. These rays can hide in the sand and give you a painful, stinging surprise… but this hunter is watchful and attentive. After capturing the animal, he holds its tail in his mouth and pulls out the poisonous stinger.
Sometimes, of course, a spear can be a little too short…
That’s why they invented the boomerang. A simple piece of wood formed into a slight curve that makes it more accurate when thrown.
The heavier it is, the more crushing is the blow when it hits its prey.
The most skilled hunters can hit an animal from a distance of more than 175 yards.
And contrary to popular belief, the boomerang doesn’t come back after it's thrown. That story was made up for tourists, my friend.

USA: NEW YORK: NEW ZEALAND MAORI GOES ON HEAD HUNTING EXPEDITION

English/Nat
A New Zealand Maori singer is on a head-hunting expedition to New York City.
Dalvanius Prime is appealing to the American Museum of Natural History to return its collection of 35 preserved and tattooed human heads to their country of origin - New Zealand.Prime is negotiating with the museum, which bought the heads in 1907 from one of his forebears.
The museum, which has not displayed the heads since the 1970s, has not said whether it will agree to return them.
Dalvanius Prime is singing the praises of his ancestors.
As a singer and performer in his native New Zealand he has achieved a certain amount of fame.
He often performs the songs he has written for his fellow Maori tribesmen.
But in the U-S, he has become famous for his fight to free his forefathers - well, their heads anyway.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"It is part of our pagan past, but you know, we are quite sophisticated people. And thanks to you Westerners, and people like this great institution, who have preserved our cultural history, we are very, very thankful. But you know, we are a very sophisticated race. We are a classic race. Our language is classic, our culture is classic, and so is our art. And that is why you people need to keep our heads, because you are totally fascinated with them, but unfortunately, it is time they came home."

This is Prime's eleventh trip to New York City to ask for the release of members of his tribe.
At the turn of the century, the American Museum of Natural History bought 35 of their skulls for a paltry 15-hundred U-S dollars.
Before they were colonised by the English, it was traditional for native Maori tribes to preserve the heads of their slaves - or mokomokai.
They were often kept around the home.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The moko on the face of these preserved Maori heads in this museum, they depict the tribal and ancestral history of our people. In other words, as you Americans call them, the genealogy of our people."

These highly decorated heads were traded to Europeans for what was then a lot of money - often nearly 20 dollars.
The NewZealand government did not want to be reminded of a savage past, Prime says, so they let the tattooed skulls go for a very low price.
The mokomokai are the history books of the ancient Maori tribe.
Intricate designs tell the story of a people who had no written language.
When the 35 heads came to New York they carried a sacred history with them.
But now Prime, whose lifelong dream to return the heads to his native people, feels it is time for them to go back to New Zealand.
According to Maori tribesmen, it is only when the mokomokai make the trip back to New Zealand that they will be able to rest in peace.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"These heads have not had their spiritual journey. Their spiritual journey is incomplete. OK? Their bones lie back in New Zealand, but their heads are over here. And also, because there is a lot of history that belongs to our tribe, and to our people, OK? And so these things have to be preserved. They are our intellectual copyright."
SUPER CAPTION: Dalvanius Prime, Ethnomusicologist
When he visits the Museum, Prime greets his preserved tribesmen as if meeting them in person.
He says he often rubs noses with the heads - a traditional Maori greeting.
He is offering an exchange of cultural artifacts if the Museum will return his ancestors.
Negotiations are still going on.
